LayoutControl hangs up Visual Studio

created 17 years ago

Hello,
Unfortunately I experienced a serious problem with the LayoutControl in DXperience 7.3 - it hangs up Visual Studio. This problem cannot be reproduced with DXperience 7.2.5, but with version 7.3.3. It seems the problem is related to XtraForm or XtraTabControl in any way. Please read "Steps To Reproduce" for more details.
This issue is very urgent for us because it stops us from using DXperience 7.3.
Regards,
Holger
Steps to Reproduce:
#1 Create a new Windows Application project
#2 Change the form's base class to XtraForm
#3 Drag a XtraTabControl to the form and dock"Fill" it
#4 Drag a LayoutControl to the first tab page
#5 Build the solution
The form's designer goes blank now. If you try to close the designer then Visual Studio starts consuming all (related to the system, dual core 50%) CPU power and Visual Studio hangs.
You will find my sample project attached to this post.

      Hello Stan,
      If it sticks to only a week until shipment of 7.3.4 then I think will get over the time until then.
      In the case this issue will suddenly become really hot here then I will come back to you.
      Thanks,
      Holger
